  • RNA-Seq compare edgeR, cufflinks, Partek

    Hi,
    I have compared RNA-Seq in 3 different platforms and get 3 different lists of differential gene expression. Has anyone done this kind of comparison?
    What do you think about this?

    how different?

    Are the 3 lists from the same set of data?
    What percentage of genes are the same? different?
    Are the programs using different statistical tests to make the comparisons?
    Do they all incorporate/deal with replicates the same way?
    What are the cutoff p-value used in each? Do they all correct for FDR?

    I would be surprised if you had no genes in common between the three programs.

      Are there really NO genes in common? Do they share gene ontology terms or pathways?

      Unfortunately, I think it's pretty common in bioinformatics for the analysis techniques to have large effects on the final list of genes and their rank. You could test genes from each list with qpcr to try to see which are the most solid.

        There are a couple of threads that may be of interest, including these:

        Application of sequencing to RNA analysis (RNA-Seq, whole transcriptome, SAGE, expression analysis, novel organism mining, splice variants)

        Discussion of next-gen sequencing related bioinformatics: resources, algorithms, open source efforts, etc

          Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
          by seqadmin


          Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
